Weekend Happenings: Music, Festivals, Walks, Yard Sales, Pirate Day + More

What a diverse and enjoyable first weekend of May this is shaping up to be in South Jersey! 

Let me ask for your special attention to two events of importance that Lite Rock is involved with this weekend.

Saturday we will be lending a hand with the week-long rebuilding effort of the Brigantine Shark Park playground. Look for Lite Rock at the park on 26th Street south beginning at 10am, but you can volunteer at any time this weekend.  Bring your tools!

Sunday, please join us on the Atlantic City Boardwalk at the Hard Rock Cafe to walk in solidarity and raise funds for the cause at the New Jersey AIDS Walk . Registration starts at 11:30am and the walk at 1pm. Sunday is supposed to be a beautiful day, so come walk with us!

Here's a look at more South Jersey Weekend Happenings.  Have a good one!
